The Nine Realms were interconnected Isu spheres of influence across the Earth.
As the First Civilization became mythologized by humanity, the Nine Realms fell into Norse legend as the various homeworlds of their gods and other races that existed along the branches of the great world tree Yggdrasil, which wove them together to form the Norse cosmos.
The realms compromised of:
- Álfheimr, home of the elves
- Asgard, home of the Æsir
- Jötunheimr, home of the Jötnar
- Múspellsheimr, the world of fire
- Midgard, home of humanity
- Svartálfaheimr/Niðavellir, home of the dark elves or dwarves
- Vanaheimr, home of the Vanir
- Niflheim, the world of ice
- Helheimr, the world of the dead.[1]
In the 9th century, the shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan consumed psychoactive mixtures prepared by her clan's resident oracle Valka, which sent her on hallucinogenic visions where she relived Odin's memories of Asgard and Jötunheimr during the Isu Era in his attempts to avert his fated encounter with Loki's son Fenrir at the onset of Ragnarök.[2]
